The French Don't Have French's Mustard

I try to embrace, or at least sample, the local food culture as much as I can.  I think eating guinea pig, sheep testicle and salted animal fat soup on this trip attest to that.  However, there are times when I need yellow mustard on my sandwiches, and that time is most lunches.  Over here, though, they call yellow mustard 'American mustard' and the grocery stores don't carry it.  Apparently, there is nothing French about French's mustard, a fact that the company wanted to make abundantly clear in 2003 when they feared a boycott of their products.

Where do you go in a foreign city to get that food product from home you are craving?  If you're lucky, an American specialty food store.  We found one in Paris called The Real McCoy, which sells American staples such as Double Stuff Oreos, Aunt Jemima pancake mix, Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper and, yes, French's Yellow Mustard.  The prices are steep (€9 for Double Stuff Oreos!), but the American expat community here must really appreciate them, because they have two locations within a block of each other.

Almost all the processed American foodstuffs you'd ever want, plus the processed Australian/New Zealand foodstuffs (Marmite and Vegemite) you'd never want
